Local "Insider" Tips
- Watch the Wind: Nebraska can be breezy, especially in the afternoons, so adjust your club selection accordingly.
- Greens Break Towards the River: The subtle undulations of the greens often lead putts to break towards the nearby Elkhorn River, so keep that in mind when reading your putts.
- Stay on the Fairway: The rough can be thick in certain areas, making it challenging to recover, so aim for accuracy off the tee.
